The premiership years in on Sky Sports now.
What happened to Leeds? Was it just the debt and why has no rich benefactor come in for them especially with their fanbase and the fact they still are seen by some as a big club.
Alway made me curious that.
I hate Leeds , far too many idiots in south Wales still cling on to their coat tails
One plank I know says oh I am a Leeds man whenever the subject of football comes up ............he's never been to a football match of any kind in his life but wears a Leeds shirt .......he was born in Bridgend
Yep.

Loved that place. What a dump, but it was our dump.
Same here, when it`s your home ground for 40 odd years, for me watching the City, CCS is a change that can never feel the same, the atmosphere is so different. I know all the arguments about moving on etc have their merit but I am a bit envious of clubs with old traditional shitholes , to a point anyway.
We were talking about this in the pub last match. It's our Woodstock moment, if you can remember it you weren't really there.
Remember going into canton just before 8, knock the window and the landlady head pops out before coming to open the door. Get in and the bar was ten people deep. By the time the pub actually "opened" everyone in there was pissed.
a truly special day
The atmosphere will never be repeated these days, it was nasty, from the movement you walked down sloper road you knew it was going to be a wild ride,I dont care that people will disagree afterall " nasty football fans in abusive chanting and throwing things shocker " the crowd must have played a part that day Leeds really looked like rabbits caught in some headlights at times
A great day indeed
It was indeed a great day. Best atmosphere I can remember, including Real Madrid.
One memory I have is a bloke walking up and down Sloper Rd before the game forlornly asking "any spare tickets?" Not a chance!
And of course, best of all, dirty Leeds never recovered.
Rio Ferdinand says most intimidating atmosphere he played in I believe ! Also described by Andy Gray as “old style cup atmosphere “ or words to that effect ! Great day !
I was in the canton stand with my son and when Ferdinand was being treated off the pitch by the goals after being injured I dragged him to a space right next to where Ferdinand was and told him to remember that this was as close as we would ever get to 18 million quid
Happy days
